Fairly minor stuff, changing the final two stops after Hayes and Harlington station to serve new homes on Nestles Avenue rather than ASDA.

I'm sure this one has been suggested on here before...

Looks fairly sensible. I did wonder if this would be a third time lucky for a DD conversion as in 2008 and 2012 when I saw '350 proposals'.

I would add another set of stops. The current two sets seem too far apart. You want to encourage people to take the bus then why not. You also dont need to have shelters for the east bound stops so it wont be costly.

Looking at Nestles Avenue, it looks like some works will need to take place at North Hythe Gardens in order to facilitate a stand and the ability for buses to turn around as Nestles Avenue is currently a no through road. I imagine in the long term and if it goes ahead, that the 350 will penetrate further into Hayes Village I agree with mondraker275 that an extra pair of stops should be implemented, somewhere near Harold Avenue IMO |

It is in the most recent Bus action plan to upgrade bus routes from Hail & Ride sections to fixed stops, so starting this route Hail & Ride is more than unlikely |

I wonder if the 350 reroute has anything to do with the Southall bus consultation, specifically regarding new route 495 which is intended to run to Hayes Asda & would need stand space.
The proposal looks fine, the U4/U5 still keep most of the 350’s links to Hayes Asda.

Very odd on how they didn't add at least 2 more stops or so, then THAT would be more slightly persuasive and encouraging than the proposed two stops in Nestles Avenue |

This might be quite a hot take but wouldn't this extension slightly mirror the 195? The 195 already runs within walking distance of the 350 extension and the Nestles Road terminus is virtually next to the 195's Roseville Road bus stop. The other two stops nearer to Hayes And Harlington are not too far from Fairey Corner which is served bu a lot of other routes. I'm not against the extension in any way if it were to go forward however I feel maybe a diversion via the 195 or E6 would help relieve the loads on both these routes. |
